It was just the ice theme deck. It'll be easy, they said. Just 12 cards, they said.
I started from the easy ones at the back and worked my way up, so things like the Aura and Terra were pretty straightforward. I already had a Bookmark page (very easy) and a Chaos Crystal page (less easy) so how hard could it be?
Well I was riding high when I hit the next page, Slow. Hoo boy, Slow.
It's a pretty simple concept: it enters the Arena and captures the Spell on the stack and releases it in two turns, delaying the spell. But code relies on breaking it down into simple steps that we can code so that actually means:
At some point I'll write up each one of those points because each one of those is a new feature that needs to be created from the ground up. Eventually it'll get easier as card effects overlap but it was a bit much for the first "real" Spell. It's certainly a lot more than "Bookmark 2". Here's to the next Page! 🍻
(...after I finish this page. so close!)
